READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE OPERATING

1. Use a dedicated electrical circuit.

IC-18A: 120V

IC-22A: 208V

IC-25A: 240V

1. DO NOT block the air-intake panel. Blocking may overheat the unit.

2. Use pans 4.75" (12cm) or larger in diameter. We recommend that pans be less than 10" (26cm) in diameter. Please refer to the next page for a list of suitable and unsuitable pans.

3. DO NOT touch the hot surface of the ceramic plate. NOTE: The induction cooker itself does not produce any heat during cooking; however, the heat from the pan will leave the ceramic surface hot!

4. DO NOT cook empty pots or pans. Heating an empty pan will automatically activate the Over Heating Protection Device and the unit will shut off.

5. Place the induction cooker on a horizontal surface and at least 4" (10cm) away from the wall and other objects for proper ventilation.

6. DO NOT place any objects or tools in the air-intake panel. Doing so may cause an electrical shock.

7. To protect against an electrical shock, DO NOT immerse the unit, the cord or the plug in or near water or other liquids.

8. Close supervision is necessary when the induction cooker is used near children.

9. DO NOT operate the induction cooker if it has been damaged in any manner or if the unit malfunctions. Return the unit to the nearest authorized service facility for examination or repair.

10. The use of any accessories not recommended by the manufacturer may cause injuries.

11. Keep the power cord away from heat.

12. DO NOT place the induction cooker in, on or near open flames, electric burners, heated ovens or other high temperature surroundings.

13. DO NOT heat any sealed cans on the induction cooker. A heated can may explode.

14. DO NOT move the induction cooker while cooking or when the pan is hot.

15. After the induction cooker has cooled down, unplug the cord and clean as follows: CERAMIC PLATE: wipe with a damp cloth or use a mild, non-abrasive cleaning solution. BODY: wipe the control panel with a soft cloth or use a mild cleaner.

16. DO NOT use induction cooker for other than intended use.

17. Unplug when not in use.

18. When storing, DO NOT place any objects on top of the induction cooker.

19. When using an induction cooker keep your pacemaker 2 feet (approx. 60cm) from the heating areas.

SAFETY DEVICES

Overtime Detector

If the pan is left on the induction cooker for more than 2 hours, or if the user does not operate any functions for more than 2 hours, the cooker will automatically shutoff.

Automatic Safety Shut-Off

If the induction cooker is left on for more than 60 seconds without a pan or with an incompatible pan, the unit will automatically shutoff.

Material Compatibility Detector

If the pan's material or its dimensions are not suitable for this induction cooker, the “Heating Indicator Light” will not turn on. The induction cooker will shutoff automatically after 60 seconds.

Small Object Detector

The induction cooker will not recognize any objects smaller than 2" (5 cm) in diameter. For best results, use pans that are between 4.75" (12 cm) and 10.25" (26 cm) in diameter.

Over Heating Protection Device

If the pan's temperature becomes too high, and the temperature remains too high for 60 seconds, the unit will shut off automatically. There will be a short warning sound after the unit shutsoff.

HOW DOES YOUR INDUCTION HOB WORK?

A high frequency (20-35KHz) induction coil located underneath the ceramic top plate heats the cooking pan by magnetic friction. The heat is produced directly within the pan. It's controlled by an electronic circuit to offer superior performance and functions. During cooking, no energy is lost between the hob and the food. When you switch it off, the cooking is stopped immediately.

PRECAUTION BEFORE USING YOUR INDUCTION HOB

1. The glass top is made of strong, hard, and non-porous properties. But, in case of breakage, even if it's only slightly cracked, disconnect the appliance from the electrical socket immediately and contact the after-sales service.
2. The appliance is equipped with a Small Object Detector. It's recommended not to place small metal kitchen utensils such as pan lids, knives, or other metal objects on the induction-heating zone. If the inductor is switched on, there is a risk of them becoming hot.
3. When using your induction hob, don't place any magnetic sensitive objects on the glass top, such as credit cards, cassettes, etc.
4. Scientific tests have shown that the induction hob presents no danger for anyone using a pacemaker. Please keep a 2' distance from the unit while the induction hob is in use.
5. To prevent from overheating, do not place aluminum foil or iron plate on the top plate.
6. Put the appliance on a horizontal surface but keep away from wall or articles at least 2" - 4".
7. To prevent an electric shock, do not put articles like iron wire or tools into the air entrance or outlet.
8. Immediate clean up is recommended when water is left on the top plate.

1. Plug power cord into 120V, 60Hz, 15A (IC-18A); 208V, 60Hz, 11A (IC-22A); 240V, 60Hz, 11A (IC-25A) dedicated electrical circuit.
2. Turn power on by pressing the power on/off button.
3. Rotate the power control knob clockwise. The power level LED will display from level 1 (Min.) to level 9 (Max.). If you turn past 9 it will start at 1 again. The same applies if you turn back past 1.
4. Put a suitable pan in center of the top plate, and rotate power control knob to desired power level.
5. Heating Indicator Light indicates if the pan is suitable or not. If the Heating Indicator Light is on, then the pan is heating. If the Heating Indicator Light is off, it means the power is on, but no pan or suitable pan is on top plate.
6. This unit is equipped with an Over Heating Protection Device, which stops power temporarily when top plate temperature reaches 482^ F (+/- 10%). The power will start again automatically when the temperature of the top plate is reduced below 482^ F (+/- 10%). By heating an empty pan, maximum temperature will be reached very quickly. The Heating Indicator Light will flash to indicate the over heating protection function is on.

Temperature Hold function: By pressing the “Warm” function key, the Temperature Hold function will start working. The LED indicates the temperature will hold at 140^ F (+/- 5%), push “Warm” function key again, the LED indicates the temperature will hold at 180^ F. When the “Warm” function key is pushed each time, the holding temperature will change as follows: 140^ F -> 180^ F -> 285^ F -> 360^ F -> 430^ F -> 140^ F ->.

1. With the Temperature Hold function working, the "Warm" indicator light will start flashing. It means the temperature has not yet arrived at the set temperature. When the pan's temperature arrives the set temperature, the "Warm" indicator light will stay on.
2. To change Temperature Hold function to "Heat" function: Push "Heat" function key, and the function will go back to "Heat" again. Then the rotary control knob will be activated again.

Installation of the "Wall Stopper"

1. Find 2 steel bullets in the box. It's the accessory for this induction cooking plate.

2. Screw these 2 steel bullets into the rear side of top case and affix it tightly.

3. The “Wall Stopper” functions as a “Stand-off”, allows the exhaust fan, built into the unit, to operate properly. Improper mounting or removal of this piece will cause the unit to operate improperly and possibly overheat.
